Cowboys' Mike McCarthy on Brandin Cooks' Role: 'I Don't Play Fantasy Football'

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy didn't appear to enjoy being asked multiple questions during Monday's press conference about why Brandin Cooks only registered one catch on two targets for seven yards in Sunday's 28-23 loss against the Philadelphia Eagles.

"I don't play fantasy football," McCarthy told reporters. "We have game plans and I think it's important and this is a challenge for guys because our system is built on making the quarterback successful. That's the way this passing game is taught. It's the way I've learned it. It's the way it has always been the last 30 years.
